Troll Tirade

Something has been bugging me lately. It's an itch I can't scratch so I'm just going to say it and let it go.

I'm a fan. I'm a fan of certain books and movies. I get a little crazy about my fandom sometimes, but it's just fun. Trust me, I'm most definitely grounded in reality. Sometimes crushed by Reality. Which is why I enjoy my fandemonium.

I get that not everyone is a fan of everything. I get that not everyone understands why someone could like something that they themselves don't like. Tirade alert: THAT DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO CRAP ALL OVER SOMEONE ELSE'S EXCITEMENT!! Just because you yourself do not care for something doesn't mean that you are better than that person. It also doesn't mean that you now have free license to call them stupid or dumb, or worse, launch into a list of why that person has bad taste, or try to change their mind!! Because frankly, some of the stuff that you like, I think is dumb and in bad taste, but I think it's cool that you have something you like and get excited about. Go, you!

SO, let's all just quit being trolls, shall we?

Thanks, and good day.

Tirade over.

I should just keep my big mouth shut...

I just reread my last post. All optimism for the next big adventure after graduation. All bright shiny hope for what was on the other side of that Door of Opportunity. Well, I found out all right. And, it's been kicking my rear ever since. Why didn't I keep my wonderings to myself? It's almost like inviting the universe: "Come and get me, please!"

In the last month and a half I've feared for my sanity on a daily basis. That balance thing I was looking for when I started this blog all those months ago....yeah, that dream's been pretty much vaporized. But, the most amazing thing in all of this is the fact that I actually wouldn't change it if I could. It's been pretty amazing at times, and, in this moment, I think it's all worth it.

But, check back with me tomorrow. I might be ready for the men to bring me that nice white coat with all the shiny buckles....
